Best craft store in Charlottesville, Virginia (VA) 2024

SHARON & RALPH have been the workers in the store for these less than pleasant recent visits. Due to my schedule, I happen to have recently visited the store within the last 30 minutes of store operating hours to purchase lights for my home. The store has been closing at 6:00 PM recently. Upon entering the store Sharon has looked at me and without giving any greeting has said to me: "STORE IS CLOSING AT 6" ... exuding negative energy and causing me to feel very uncomfortable getting items that I needed before going home. Ralph, while standing at the cash register would project his voice at those who entered the store and state, "STORE IS CLOSING AT 6" -with no greeting and also with very negative energy. I think this is worth noting in this review for the store owner to know about because the store is OPEN until 6 and staff should not subject paying customers to such rude, negative, and unwelcoming energy and body language for entering the store during the time the store IS IN FACT OPEN. I do have compassion for the staff because we are all facing a very challenging time in society. The whole world is short staffed and they have the strength and dedication to show up. I commend them for their resilience. However, I do not want them to treat me with less than decency for arriving to the store to spend money for needed items. ~Joshua
